Valmet Oyj Finland

includes several high-power features to maximize energy efficiency. Leading safety solutions and advanced process controls for optimized performance and high-performance predictability support the operation. The boiler will have a capacity of 1,950 tonnes of dry solids per day (tDS/d).

The Valmet Ash Crystallization Plant for ash treatment will have the capacity to process 140 tonnes of ash per day. The ash treatment is an integral part of the mill's chemical recovery cycle, removing chloride and potassium from the liquor cycle, thus reducing corrosion and ash accumulation in the boiler. The high-efficiency system guarantees continued operation of the recovery boiler for long periods and low maintenance and operating costs.

The delivery also includes Valmet NCG solutions, covering the collection and handling of the mill's odorous gases.

The new equipment will be enhanced with an automation scope that will optimize the performance with a comprehensive combination of advanced monitoring and prediction applications, such as a boiler diagnostic camera system, an ash analyzer, and Valmet Industrial Internet applications, including a complete package of advanced process controls, a Recovery Boiler Optimizer and Valmet Training Simulators. They will provide continuous operation, autonomous controls, and high-performance predictability.

In addition, 140 Neles and Jamesbury valves will be delivered, including globe valves equipped with ND9000 smart positioners and Axiom on/off valve controllers as part of Valmet's offering, guaranteeing safety and reliability to the new recovery boiler.
